RESTING IN GOD'S LOVE
Lie: “I’m a mess. How could God love me?”
Truth: There is absolutely nothing I can do to earn God’s love.
Truth: Nothing and no one can take God’s love away from me.
Truth: God loved me yesterday. God loves me today. God will love me through all my tomorrows. No. matter. What.
Use this simple tool to practice silence and solitude:
1- Take 10 deep breaths and just sit in the presence of Father, Son, and Spirit, allowing His love to envelop you with stillness and security.
2 -Read Romans 8:38-39 multiple times. What is the Lord speaking to your heart?
3- Take time to write down and pray those impressions back to God.
Take a Next Step: Continue to make space for God during this Advent season. Look for Walking with Joy: An Advent Study and invite a friend to read along with you.

The holidays bring excitement and busyness, sweet moments and chaos, blessing and frustration. In the hustle, bustle, merry, and bright, we’re looking expectantly for perfect presents and serene gatherings. The reality often falls short of our expectations. And that’s why celebrating Advent is an important rhythm for our calendars. As you eagerly anticipate Christmas day, find moments to pause and rest in the story of God’s love.
